we're down to hours

Finally, our baby will be joining our family and Dallin will get to meet his little sister for the first time.  We finally took out and cleaned up the infant car seat (7+ weeks after her birth).  She had to pass the "car seat challenge" today.  Basically, they had her sit in her car seat for an hour and made sure her breathing and heart rate were not affected.  She passed with flying colors.  On Sunday we will go to the hospital to stay over night with Kylie.  On Monday they will let us bring her home.  We will go in the evening and stay in the Ronald McDonald House (http://www.mcdonalds.com/rmhc/index/support.html) with her overnight, so we can feed her and get used to her.  That way, if we have any questions or problems, the nurses are close by.  They will also brief us on lots of stuff about what her special needs are, etc.  It seems like it will be a good way to transition and hopefully not panic once we get home.  We’re ready to have her home, that’s for sure.
